This perfect Craftsman sits among lush foliage just a block from the amenities of Solano Avenue. The main level is anchored by the stunning kitchen that opens to the deck and private garden. Beautiful inlaid hardwood floors grace the formal living and dining rooms, and a bonus room makes the perfect home office. A powder room completes this level. Up the stairs are three bedrooms and two baths, including the private primary suite, which has exterior access and a kitchenette (great in-law unit potential). Also on this level is a sunny family room (could be used as a 4th bedroom) with two walls of gorgeous windows framing the yard. The expansive backyard offers abundant space to dine, entertain and relax. It has been beautifully landscaped with custom stone patios and trees, including Meyer lemon, makrut lime and fig, as well as succulents and myriad fragrant plants. The owner is an artist who used the garage as an art studio and you’ll find works by numerous artists along the paths.
